I'm leaving The words fall out of my mouth and onto the floor I am needing To pack up my bags and walk right out the door This is goodbye I'll roll the windows down on my green Chevrolet And I don't know where I'm going Just know that I can't stay Might make it to Memphis But if that ain't far enough I'll speed down the highway to Tulsa, Missoula So fast that the hurt can't catch up I'm burning your memory One mile at a time All the way to Tacoma By then you'll be out of my mind I'm thinking With a truck stop song and a cold cup of coffee That I'm drinking And I'm hurting like hell, but honey, how could I not be? You made me The joker, the fool, yeah, the last one to know So I'm gonna put mountains and rivers and deserts between us Go as far as I can go Might make it to Memphis But if that ain't far enough I'll speed down the highway to Tulsa, Missoula So fast that the hurt can't catch up I'm burning your memory One mile at a time All the way to Tacoma By then you'll be out of my mind
Might leave some tears in Topeka Couple of sleepless nights in Cheyenne Every time that I miss you I'll hit the gas as fast as I can ♪ Might make it to Memphis Past those Kansas City lights All the way to Tacoma By then you'll be out of my mind All the way to Tacoma By then you'll be out of my mind, mm
